Also developing immunity to a new virus is quite literally humans evolving


'evolution' on that time scale isn't evolution, moron

Admittedly I did word the statement incorrectly. But what HAS been found and documented are instances where someone was symptomatic, became asymptomatic, tested fine, and then tested positive again more than a week later


Anyone on the planet can reacquire if they become immunosuppressed. No immune system, no immune response. This is an outlier, and has no place in a conversation about this virus being different.

There was also a study I found that tested 175 former Covid patients and they could not find the antibodies in 10 of those. Thankfully 10 is a relatively small number but there hasn’t been anything to show that you’re guaranteed to develop the antibodies.


The antibodies to ANYTHING ALWAYS disappear after the agent is cleared. So do the B cells that produced them. However, the immune system has memory, and can produce those same B cells the first sign of the agent reappearing. Your study was probably from the Huffington Post, they may understand less about immunity than you do.

I guess they don’t teach this in HS biology anymore. I remember a whole month or two on vaccines and antibiotics. It’s one of our contributions to the world. It’s like everyone forgot about it...oh, I forgot....American is bad now.
